Radical Innovation: Incubation site for “disruptive Tier 1 technologies” (Hart & Christensen, 2002) ~1.5 billion < $3,000/yr Tier 4 III. Competitive Pre-emption: Breeding ground for next-gen, global-scale competitors (Christensen, Craig, & Hart, 2001) ~4.0 billion The Business Sense of BoP Strategy Global Population Per Capita Income (PPP)

  4. The MNC: Traditional Customer Base “Tip” of the Income Pyramid Cost structures, business models, & research methods based on a “Western infrastructure” > $15,000/yr The “ToP” Customer “Base” of the Resource Pyramid 85% of Global Resources
